This wonderful
2008 colt by the Oldenburg approved
Holsteiner stallion,
Cathalido,
has fun showing off his incredible
movement. One couldn't ask for
better, and along with his beautiful
conformation and type he will surely
turn heads in either the dressage
arena or the hunter jumper world.
His sire,
Cathalido (Calido I x Ilona XV (Carthago)),
is in turn sired by Calido I who was
the standout sire in jumping at the
2004 Bundeschampionate having sired
the Champion of the 5 year old
jumpers, Coster, and the Reserve
Champion, Clintwood. Calido's sire,
Cantus, goes back to the great
thoroughbred stallion, Cottage Son
xx who also appears in the dam line
of Cathalido. She also also goes
back to the refining and legendary
thoroughbred stallion, Ladykiller xx
who along with Cottage Son xx are
considered two of the top jumper
sires of all time in modern sport
breeding (click

This colt's dam,
"Juno" (Columbus x Miss
Bodacious xx (Raise a Bid xx)), is a
registered Reserve Champion
Holsteiner mare that was presented
to the Oldenburg Verband in 2006
where she received an overall 7.0
and tied for Site Champion Mare. She
is in the Main Mare Book, and this
colt will be presented for
registration this year with the OHBS.
Juno's sire,
Columbus (Calypso II x Marina
(Farnese)), is the only USA owned
Holsteiner stallion who is currently
ranked in the USEF Top Ten Leading
Stallions for all disciplines.
